Our home game played in Werribee. Not sure why we can't play at Skinner Reserve?

Just 2 toilets might be a reason and would we cough up for portables? I don't think so.
This whole upgrade of the Whitten Oval has been at the expense of giving our side an advantage and we have to suck it up.

Well hopefully he’s a late in if it turns out we need to fight someone on a motorcycle instead of play footy.

No changing rooms, no public amenities and no cover for any of the supporters are probably some of the reasons.
We are paying a massive price by shuffling the team around waiting for the Whitten Oval redevelopment to be completed.

Only 4 VFL listed players in our starting 18 is a good sign we are getting players back and Bevo said Bruce is close.

That would be ideal considering we are training there for a bit until Whitten Oval is ready.

Don't we have a home oval?
Our home game at Weerribee v Werribee?
Great to see a MacPherson playing for Footscray like his old man Steve.

We should have played our home games at Ballarat at lease stop our opposition having a home ground advantage as the away side.

HT - Werr 4.11 to Dogs 2.4 Hard to find a player of note from this first half. Maybe Khamis and Cleary (usual suspects…).

Re: Round 8: Footscray Bulldogs v Werribee Tigers - Sunday 14 May 2023

missed the first quarter but the second qtr looked putrid from our boys. Could easily be 6 or 7 goals down.

Re: Round 8: Footscray Bulldogs v Werribee Tigers - Sunday 14 May 2023

I wouldn't renew Robbie McComb contact going on todays effort so there's one list spot open.
Toby McLean looks done.
Laitham Vandermeer would want start getting some numbers as well or he could be touch and go Arty already looks just as quick and more hurt factor.

Re: Round 8: Footscray Bulldogs v Werribee Tigers - Sunday 14 May 2023

Vandermeer to date has shown poor decision making. Arty is a natural footy player. I’m guessing as Vanders is quick, something we are in short supply of, he stays.

- McComb really doesn't suit way game is going as well. If you aren't getting a crack with CBAs, you gotta be quick or have a good tank + either good disposal/elite at finding ball/height to impact contest. He surely has to go.
- McLean has shown he can play at the highest level. I think we need to play him exclusively forward at VFL level and see how that goes as he seems far off getting CBAs at AFL level
- VDM has pace, which is a bit like height in terms of how much time it buys you
